Six happy children's faces

Goals

  •  To create training opportunities for childcare providers and parents based on their needs. 
  • To empower parents to learn about their rights and responsibilities. 
  • To make parents aware of the existing gaps in enrollment and school readiness, and of the gaps in the childcare and public school system, which are there due to income level, race/ethnicity, language barriers and lack of cultural awareness. 
  • 4. Promote the idea of a caring community – a community that supports the families of those who need childcare and those that provide it.
